Allfall Insecticide (Buprofezin 25% SC): Expert Guide
The ultimate solution for managing Brown Plant Hoppers (BPH) and Whiteflies without harming your ecosystem.
Allfall by Nichino India is a specialized Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). Unlike harsh chemicals that kill instantly but ruin the environment, Allfall works intelligently by stopping pests from molting and growing. It is the "Gold Standard" for controlling sucking pests in Rice, Cotton, and Mango orchards while keeping beneficial insects safe.
Best For: Breaking the resistance cycle in pests that no longer die with ordinary sprays.

Mode of Action: How It Kills Pests
Allfall acts as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). It does not kill adults immediately; instead, it targets the young nymphs and the eggs.
- Stops Molting: It inhibits the formation of "Chitin" (the insect's skin). When a nymph tries to shed its old skin to grow, it fails and dies.
- Sterilizes Adults: When adult females come in contact with Allfall, they lay sterile eggs that never hatch.
- Hidden Reach: Through vapor action, it penetrates the underside of leaves and deep canopy to find hidden pests.
Note: You may see adult pests flying for a few days after spraying, but the population is effectively stopped because no new generation can be born.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Rice (Paddy) | Brown Plant Hopper (BPH), Green Leaf Hopper (GLH), White-Backed Plant Hopper |
| Cotton | Whitefly, Aphids, Jassids, Thrips |
| Mango / Grapes / Chillies | Mango Hoppers, Mealybugs, Yellow Mites |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Using less water will reduce efficacy.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice | 320 - 400 ml | 200 L | 1.5 - 2.0 ml | 20 Days |
| Cotton | 400 ml | 200 L | 2.0 ml | 20 Days |
| Grapes / Mango | -- | As required | 1.0 - 1.5 ml | 14-21 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Important for export crops.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray at the early stage of pest infestation (ETL 5-10 nymphs per hill). Do not wait for the "Hopper Burn" stage.
- Mixing: Use clean water. Do not mix with highly alkaline substances like Bordeaux mixture.
- Coverage: For Rice, direct the nozzle to the base of the plant (stem). For Cotton, ensure the underside of leaves is covered.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Allfall kill adult pests instantly?
No. Allfall is an IGR (Insect Growth Regulator). It kills nymphs during molting and sterilizes adults. You may see adults for 2-3 days, but they cannot reproduce.
2. Is Allfall safe for Honey Bees?
Yes, it is relatively safe for bees and natural predators like spiders, making it excellent for eco-friendly farming.
3. Can I use Allfall on vegetable crops?
Yes, it is effective against sucking pests in Chillies, Okra, and Tomatoes. Ensure you follow the dosage and waiting period (PHI).
4. What is the difference between SC and WP formulation?
SC (Suspension Concentrate) is liquid, dust-free, and sticks better to leaves. It is safer for the user and poses less risk of burning delicate flowers compared to WP (powder).
5. Can I mix Allfall with other pesticides?
Yes, it is compatible with most insecticides like Acephate or Imidacloprid for a "knockdown + long control" combination. Avoid mixing with lime or alkaline products.
